Is Michigan about to strike gold at LB late in the cycle for a second straight year? Sep 21, 2022

Show notes

In last year’s recruiting cycle, Jim Harbaugh and George Helow hit it big late in the game with a late bloomer — linebacker Jimmy Rolder. The former four-star burst onto the scene his senior year of high school and ended up getting a ton of great offers leading up to the December signing period. Michigan landed his signature and he’s played in all three games so far in 2022.

So are the Michigan Wolverines about to strike gold at the position late in the cycle two years in a row? They recently extended an offer to 2023 linebacker Arion Carter. He was barely within the top-800 just a few days ago but after getting offers from Michigan, Alabama, USC, Tennessee and more, he’s now a four-star prospect.

Von Lozon and Seth Berry discuss this recently developing recruitment and more on this week’s Future Brew podcast.

Pick’em Pod Week 3: Nebraska/Oklahoma has a much closer spread than you’d think Sep 16, 2022

Show notes

Nebraska has had a brutal start to the season. Its most recent upset loss at home to Georgia Southern got head coach Scott Frost fired (SEE YA) right before a major matchup against their biggest rival — the Oklahoma Sooners.

Despite the coaching change and the program being a flaming hot dumpster fire this season so far, the Cornhuskers are only an 11-point underdog. The game is the friendly confines of Memorial Stadium, but should that weigh heavily into the point spread this week? Who do you think will cover in this one?

Von Lozon, Luke Ghiardi and Scotty White pick that game and more of Week 3’s best on this edition of the Pick’em Podcast! All the games discussed are below, listed with their point spread courtesy of DraftKings.

No. 11 Michigan State at Washington (-3)

No. 12 BYU at No. 25 Oregon (-3.5)

Purdue at Syracuse (-1.5)

Fresno State at No. 7 USC (-12.5)

No. 6 Oklahoma (-11) at Nebraska

No. 13 Miami at No. 24 Texas A&M (-6)

No. 22 Penn State (-3) at Auburn

UConn at No. 4 Michigan (-47.5)

Notre Dame, Nebraska commits Michigan should contact following their rough starts to the season Sep 14, 2022

Show notes

Two weeks into the college football season, it’s no secret the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Nebraska Cornhuskers are struggling. Notre Dame still has yet to win a game under head coach Marcus Freeman, being upset at home last week to Marshall and losing their starting quarterback for the entire season in the process. Nebraska lost to Georgia Southern last weekend and fired head coach Scott Frost.

Now, Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan Wolverines have a huge opportunity on the recruiting trail to go after some of the ND and Nebraska commits who may consider leaving the class following their respective team’s rough beginning to 2022. Who are the main guys to look for moving forward? Von Lozon and Seth Berry discuss on this week’s Future Brew.

Brewcast: JJ Wins the Job Sep 13, 2022

Show notes

Sophomore J.J. McCarthy has left no doubt as to who should be the starting quarterback moving forward. After a monster performance against Hawaii, Jim Harbaugh wasted no time in letting everyone know McCarthy would be the guy moving forward. How much does this change for the Michigan Wolverines?

One of Michigan’s go-to guys in the first two weeks has been junior wide receiver Roman Wilson. He had two touches for two touchdowns in the game against Hawaii, so is he emerging as one of the best receivers on the roster?

Luke Ghiardi and Scotty White are back to discuss all that and more on this week’s episode of Brewcast.
